    Since the Oreo 8.1 update, I've lost the Messages balloon colours I had set for some contacts. Does anyone know how we change the balloon colours now?

    TIA

    If you're on the latest Messages app you can no longer change the colors. If you're still on the old one, open a message, go to top right, tap on the three dots, then go to People & options. you can change the colors in there.

    Thanks Bla1ze! I'm on the latest Messages app, so I guess I'm stuck with the default colour.

    that messages update pushed to my PRIV, not yet to my KEYONE or Two. Like everything but the losing the choice of colors. They better put that back in the next update. Colors made it easier to distinguish who's who.

    Oh I've been using Textra also for almost a year now. I would just like Android Messages to be able to at least match Textra with the bubble colors and naming group texts - and then whatever else they add to differentiate themselves.

    In the Messages App - select the conversation - select the three dots top right - select people and options. To the right of the name of the contact select the colour.

    @BBuso77 this option disappeared with the latest Messages app. Thanks though.
